Abstract

Disclosed is a recording apparatus for performing recording using an ink-jet recording head (1) for discharging an ink from an array of a plurality of orifices, including a drive unit for driving the recording head (1) on the basis of a recording signal to cause a first orifice of the plurality of orifices to discharge an ink at a first timing, and to cause a second orifice to discharge an ink at a second timing, and a moving unit for moving the recording head (1) and a recording medium (2) relative to each other by an amount corresponding to a distance between the first and second orifices during a time interval between the first and second timings by the drive unit. There is also disclosed a recording method. <IMAGE>
